Victorville, California

The scenic Mojave River flows through Victorville, which enjoys a high desert climate at 2,726 feet altitude. This means that you want to be prepared for hot summer days and cold winters, so you need to choose the right class of RV to ensure you stay comfortable. Here's a look at your options for Victorville RV rental:

The Class A works well for large groups of eight to 10 people. It's a high-end RV complete with more luxurious amenities than other motorhome rentals in Victorville. The Class A may be 45 feet long with a mileage factor of six to eight miles per gallon, so plan your finances accordingly.

Class B RV rental in Victorville is smallest of the self-powered motorhome rentals in Victorville, which allows you greater access to out of the way campsites. It is also easier to drive and has better mileage.

A plus for the Class C RV is that it's truck chassis may prove more familiar to drive than a Class A or B. Its large windows and overhead bunk allow for sightseeing and storage accordingly. This is probably the most common type you see on the road.

If you choose to drive your own vehicle, you will want towable camper rentals in Victorville. First, be sure that your vehicle is heavy-duty enough to haul travel trailers, pop-up campers, or a fifth wheel. In the case of a fifth wheel, its weight means a full ton truck is required to pull it, and the truck must have an in-bed hitch. For a small pop-up camper rental in Victorville, your SUV or even large sedan will haul it easily. With all camper rentals, you'll be content with the amount of storage available.
